House For Sale £1,000,000
A thoughtfully converted 5 bedroom, 2 bathroom barn with beautiful exposed beams and a simply stunning open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room, located in an exceptional rural position on a working arable farm, perfectly located for country living.
Description
With 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms the overall accommodation is generous and the owners have used the space cleverly to include a utility area and cloakroom. The vaulted main reception room includes a country style kitchen, with wide block work tops, attractive red AGA, and pantry, and also gives ample space for relaxing around the woodburner, and casual dining. The mezzanine area can serve a variety of purposes: teenage den, homeworking space, or separate TV room. Its glazed partition means that this feels separate to the main living area, but is also filled with natural light. The inner entrance hall is wide and spacious, meaning that the current owners can use the area as a play area for their children. There is plenty of storage in the multitude of in built cupboards.
The gardens
The gardens wrap around and are accessible from the vaulted open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room as well as the master bedroom and the hallway. They are laid mostly to lawn, with a gravel driveway to the front and wooded area to the rear. The Barn sits in approximately 0.4 of an acre and the farm itself is circa 300 acres.
What we love about this property
Timber Barn has been thoughtfully and sympathetically restored and renovated by the current owners to create a beautiful rural retreat, which has fully embraced the original bones of the building, resulting in exceptional beam work. The arrangement of the internal accommodation has been well thought through, providing the much desired open plan living space, a separate study or den area and a distinct bedroom quarters giving peace and seclusion.
And on the outside ...
The views over the farm owned land are sensational and the property is located at the end of long private drive, offering real peace and seclusion but not isolation, thanks to the collection of residential dwellings surrounding the farm yard. The Barn offers a real opportunity to enjoy this lovely family home and all that the glorious surrounding countryside on offer. Buxted and Lewes are readily accessible for shopping and the close proximity of Little Horsted Primary School is also advantageous.
